保育園運営・光の子グループに行政処分　給付金の不正受給で嘉手納町　第2嘉手納園の新規受け入れ停止 | 沖縄タイムス＋プラス

This page reports on the Hikari no Ko Group, which operates childcare centers in Kadena Town and Yomitan Village, unlawfully receiving over 4 million yen in subsidies by falsely reporting non-existent childcare staff. In response, Kadena Town announced administrative measures to suspend new enrollment at the "Hikari no Ko Yoji Gakuen Daini Kadena Garden" for 2026. A Ryukyu University associate professor commented that the group exploited its multi-municipality operations to evade audits, calling the case particularly malicious.
